To obtain an e-filing account for the Eastern District of Louisiana,
attorneys must complete CM/ECF training.
Classroom Training
Training classes are held at
the courthouse on a regular basis. Live training classes qualify for two
hours of Louisiana CLE credit for members of the LA State Bar and are provided at no charge.
Registration in
a live training class is available by clicking here. If live training is elected, the attorneys must personally attend the
training class. A secure login and password will only be given to the
attorney at the completion of the live training class. Support staff may
signup for the class as well using the above link.
On-line Tutorial
The Eastern District of Louisiana has recently
implemented a CM/ECF on-line tutorial. Attorneys may
complete the necessary CM/ECF training utilizing the on-line tutorial
instead of participating in a live training class. To access the tutorial
modules, click here. Once
completing the tutorial, the attorney must then sign and submit to the Court
a Certificate of Completion including a completed e-filing registration
form. Upon receipt of the certificate and registration form, the Clerk's
Office will contact the attorney by e-mail within 72 hours with the secure login and password needed to
access the live CM/ECF system. The on-line tutorial does not qualify for
Louisiana CLE credit.
